Economy tyres, arcade mode.

And still no driving aids right? You don't want people staying on the track much then!

What about the quick tune settings? I reckon we should leave the power alone but anything else can be adjusted to suit each driver? (saying that i'm not sure how much you can actually adjust in arcade...)

BTR or CTR.

And do you mean economy or just the standard tyres it comes with (I assume sports med or soft)

I meant the economy tyres

And BTR we agreed on didn't we?

[wildoliver]

So at the risk of looking dumb buy the car and fit any economy tyre of choice yes?

Doesn't sound too bad, I had a quick go this morning, couldn't get below 1.51 with TC, and 1.52 without...

I can't help feeling the economy tyres let it down a bit though, instead of taking risks to try and take that corner a bit quicker, I find I have to slow to a crawl so I don't understeer into a wall... IMO it would be a lot more fun with no TC and sport tyres...

What do we think?

[magpie215]

before the ruf trial mountain decision I had a few laps of monaco with the alto as it was winning the poll....god was it painfull 1st gear only up the big hill 54 mph ish top speed up there :-(

standard car sport medium tyres managed a 2:19.807....there was room for time to be made up.

will have a go with the RUF today hopefully

ETA

just done 10 laps best was 1:52.054 economy tyres no driver aids in the RUF.

some room for improvement I think.

Economy and standard car.

So it's the BTR standard with economy tyres and we can choose our own settings on the driving aids, sounds simple.

Magpie215: 1:50.489
valve bounce66:1.50.491.

[skylinecrazy]

I must be really slow then

I can't get below a 1:52!

[magpie215]

yeah I seem to be consistently lapping in the mid 51s low 52s just a one off hot lap where everything went well.

The physics on GT4 don't exactly help either.

[valve bounce66]

blew the dust off the wheel,took about 10 laps to get the time down.
